We present a low-voltage low-power CMOS tunable transconductor exploiting body gain boosting to increase the small-signal output resistance. As a distinctive feature, the proposed scheme allows the OTA transconductance to be tuned via the current biasing the gain-boosting circuit. The proposed transconductor has been designed in a 0.13-µm CMOS...

This work presents the development and construction of an adaptive street lighting system that improves safety at intersections, which is the result of applying low-power Internet of Things (IoT) techniques to intelligent transportation systems. A set of wireless sensor nodes using the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)...

This paper presents the design of a safety system based on controlled electromagnetic field (CEMF) sensing technology to prevent accidents caused by power tools, especially related to handheld circular saws. The safety system creates an invisible protection bubble of electromagnetic field around the cutting edge. The system can provide early...

This article aims to describe a system designed to control the movement of mobile robots by blinking eyes. It is based on the use of a Brain Computer Interface and a particular control architecture. The paper addresses the key aspects that allow simplifying usersrobot interaction and proposes a control strategy that facilitates a fast learning...

A novel tunable transconductor is presented. Input transistors operate in the triode region to achieve programmable voltage-to-current conversion. These transistors are kept in the triode region by a novel negative feedback loop which features simplicity, low voltage requirements, and high output resistance. A linearity analysis is carried out...

This work presents the design, construction and testing of a new embedded sensor system for monitoring concrete curing. A specific mote has been implemented to withstand the aggressive environment without affecting the measured variables. The system also includes a real-time monitoring application operating from a remote computer placed in a...

An industrial wireless monitoring and control system, capable of supporting energy-harvesting devices through smart sensing and network management, designed for improving electro-refinery performance by applying predictive maintenance, is presented. The system is self-powered from bus bars, and features wireless communication and easy-to-access...

Método para la implementación de un amplificador de capacidades conmutadas insensible a la relación entre las capacidades y al offset de los amplificadores. El método consiste en utilizar cuatro fases de reloj y dos amplificadores operacionales en un circuito de capacidades conmutadas, de forma que, tras las dos primeras fases de reloj se...

Perimeter detection systems detect intruders penetrating protected areas, but modern solutions require the combination of smart detectors, information networks and controlling software to reduce false alarms and extend detection range. The current solutions available to secure a perimeter (infrared and motion sensors, fiber optics, cameras,...

This work presents the design, development and implementation of a smart sensor to monitor the respiratory rate. This sensor is aimed at overcoming the drawbacks of other systems currently available in market, namely, devices that are costly, uncomfortable, difficult-to-install, provide low detection sensitivity, and little-to-null...
